The honest take

Which one is right for you?

No app is best for everyone. Here's the straight answer.

Choose Copilot Money if… Copilot

  • You’re all-in on Copilot’s iPhone, iPad, Mac, and web experience
  • You budget solo and don’t need to share
  • You’ll pay a premium for signature design and animations

Choose Cosmic Budget if… Cosmic

  • You (or your partner) use Android or want a household-first web workflow
  • You want one subscription to cover your household
  • You want AI receipt parsing and line-item detail
  • You’d rather pay $49 than $95

Copilot deserves its reputation — it’s one of the best-looking money apps ever made, and its web app makes it more flexible than it used to be. The remaining questions for many households are simpler: “Does this work well for an Android partner?” and “Can we budget together?” That’s where Cosmic Budget is the better fit.

Clean budgeting, more household focus

Cosmic Budget is built for iOS, Android, and web with the same refined design on each. Nobody in your household gets left out because of their phone.

Made for two, not one

Copilot is a single-player app. Cosmic Budget includes whole-household sharing in the base $49/year price — shared budgets, joint goals, and a combined view of where the money goes.

Receipts your assistant can read

On top of parsing receipts to the line item, Cosmic exposes a personal MCP endpoint so your AI assistant can answer money questions from live data. More on that here →
